LONDON. April g. Lord Harrington
has written the following letter 10 q
Unionist meeting: at is Of great ina
poFtancs that some answer should be
given to the agitation that is being pro-
NOTED against me. as much for the
maintenance Of order in Ireland as any
thing else. Doubtless Il is greatly 20 be
regretted that the Government IL again
compelled TO use ooercive measures. Al
though all statesmen have not shruRk
on former occasions from proposing in
similar circumstances legislation OF
equal, II not greater severity, u is my

compelled the Government to resort t0

mainly caused by an unredFessed
grievance. It ia the result Of deter
miuation Of ssme leaders Of the Irish
people 20 provoke the government Of
Ireland by the Parliament Of the United
Kingdom. II IL impossible, and an at-
tempt is being made 10 dfscredit both
remedial and repressive legislation. In
my jnRgment this attempt oneht to be-
firmly resisted bY Unionists, both liberal
